Hi guys, I had my baby this morning at 8 a.m. after a long night of labor! She is super healthy, apgars were 9 and 10, came out pink and screaming. She is about 8 1/2 lbs and 21 in long! She is already a daddy's girl as DH is great at soothing her. She did not latch on right away with nursing but finally this afternoon she had a few great latch and suck sessions, I think she'll be a great nurser with a little practice.

I had a lot of natural labor starting yesterday evening, but once I got to the hospital (at 6 cm and 90% effaced) I stopped progressing completely despite many natural measures - so I got pitocin, then the pit contractions were too much for me and I was again not progressing, so I got an epidural, and pushed her out soon after. Still waiting for my leg to stop being numb I am happy that I went for a natural birth and I don't regret any of the decisions that were made, everything worked out well as baby and I are both doing great!

I probably won't be around much for awhile but just wanted to share the news!!!!!

Oh my gosh!!!!!! I'm so happy for you!!! Are you going to post pics?? (I know you don't like to post personal things, but please?? LOL) I'm so glad she's here, she's healthy and everything went "smoothly". So very excited for you Shen!!
